Salford Court Farmhouse

Salford Court Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 16th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It features a timber-frame structure that is partly clad in brick, topped with a plain tile roof. There is an external brick and rubble stack at the left end and a brick stack at the right. Originally, the building was L-shaped, consisting of a service area and hall in the main range, with a porch leading to a cross passage entrance and a gabled cross-wing at the upper end. The stack on the rear wall of the hall is no longer visible from the outside. In the early 19th century, the angle of the L was filled in to create a rectangular plan.

The garden front has two storeys and displays three irregular ranges of windows beneath three gables. Most of the windows are 19th-century casements with segmental heads, while the left range features multi-pane sashes. A large area of the ground floor is obscured by a late 19th-century and 20th-century lean-to that contains an entrance at the right end. The opposite front, facing the farmyard, has some recently exposed close-studding and retains the original porch, although the door has been replaced by a sash window.

Inside, the original roof consists of four bays over the hall and service areas, and three bays over the cross-wing. The trusses have single queen posts supporting the collar and trench purlins. The hall contains some 17th-century panelling, including a broken pediment over a door adorned with ball finials.
